Information about the comic, from May 2003:

I found this wonderful thing (scroll down beyond introduction)
completely by accident and on an apparently very lucky day at
a house sale earlier
this year. As far as I can tell this comic book is, forgive me
for using this term but it deserves it unbelievably unknown.
I even showed it to some friends who collect peculiar comics like
this and none of them had ever heard of it (and a couple offered,
no, demanded I sell it to them on the spot, heh. sorry.) nor could
I find any mention of it in books or on the web. So enjoying the
idea that this is a discovery, I have posted it here. It's certainly
a very strange time capsule at the very least. A little disturbing
and funny, too. Read through the whole thing for all the science
and world-history lessons (the Manhatten
Project and Ernest Rutherford panels are especially good) and enjoy the somewhat bizarre
speculation on what good the Atom would soon do for mankind. My
favorite bits are the predictions of strapping medical patients
to nuclear reactors (page 22), and of our future as colonizers
of the moon (page 33) - Quite a future atomic energy had planned
for us back about fifty years ago.

Particularly though, I think this comic is just really beautifully
done - and reading through it, it is difficult to believe that
it's gone ignored for almost half a century. It's just so well
written, conceived and illustrated. Every detail seems just perfect,
especially the bold unconventional layouts for two-page spreads,
like BUILDUP (pg 12) and PROPULSION (pg 16) - and the gorgeous
use of spot-colors throughout the entire book's design. I really
think it's one of the most interesting and beautiful looking comics
I've ever come across, maybe you'll agree.
